**Resume Workshop**


Today we're going to take a short break from the technical stuff to talk about a topic that is extremely important for our ability to become professionals: resumes. We've talked a little about resumes here in class, so we generally know what they are. Wikipedia says:

"A résumé is a document that contains a summary or listing of relevant job experience and education. The résumé or CV is typically the first item that a potential employer encounters regarding the job seeker and is typically used to screen applicants, often followed by an interview, when seeking employment."

So, we're going to be working with BAVC's
Internship Coordinator, Felice Archbold, who is going to help us put together really solid resumes that will help us highlight our skills. Please keep in mind that Felice is going to be in charge of finding YOUR internship, so the more you can help her by putting effort into your resume, the better she will be able to help you find a great internship opportunity!
